Parent Survey for Placement - Reposting from last week-Due Date Extended*

We are planning for next school year! As we traditionally do, we are asking for your input to help us with the class placement process. Keeping in mind that we don't take specific teacher requests, we balance each class as we consider a child's skills, teacher qualities, and overall class makeup. We believe sources from several different data points, and your insight is critical.


Please complete the Parent Input for Placement Survey this week (*June 1.) Click here for the link. here for the link.

PUMA OLYMPICS

Hello Pinebrook Families! PE is holding a Puma Olympics, DL and Hybrid style!  

WHEN? May 28th  - June 10th 

WHERE? During scheduled PE times and in your home whenever you please!

WHAT? Students will select from a choice board, of various PE challenges to complete on their own or with the family. These challenges have a high focus on social and emotional health which, we all know, is super important this year! Three classes in each grade level will earn a CLASS TROPHY for the highest participation points (1st, 2nd, 3rd place). 

HOW? 

DL – Beginning May 28th, DL PE classes will be completing some choice board activities LIVE with their PE Teachers.

Hybrid - Beginning May 28th, students who have in- person PE will be completing some of the Puma Olympics choice board activities during PE time. If they complete during PE time, the PE teachers will log that specific activity for the student so it can be scored.

How do you participate as a family at home?  (Hybrid and DL) - Periodically ask about and check your child’s “On Your Own” asynchronous choice board on the PE Schoology page for activities that can be completed at home with family. These activities can be completed ANY TIME that is good for the family up until June 10th. When completed, help your child, if needed, click the “Puma Olympic Score Sheet” to check the activities you were able to complete. That’s it!

Choice Boards and Puma Olympic Score Sheet will be posted on Schoology pages beginning MAY 28th. Look out for them! 

Winners will be announced June 11th! 

See video on how to complete the Score Sheet to log “at home” activities!
